If this keeps being an issue, maybe browser vendors will eventually limit website CPU usage by default.
For web apps that need it, it could be an explicit permission, like webcam or location access.
- oehpr 7y agoHey I like this idea. This is something that needs to happen. Every website starts with aggressive CPU throttling, and then they can ask for permission to be unthrottled. "Our web page requires lots of CPU to deliver text, for some reason we would prefer you not think about, can you please unthrottle us?". This seems like an action browsers could take to significantly improve the web.
